US denies visas to Palestinian leaders for UN assembly, citing lack of peace compliance.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has denied visas to Palestinian leaders, barring them from the upcoming UN General Assembly. This move, based on U.S. laws that sanction the Palestinian Authority for not complying with peace commitments, marks the first time such action has been taken. The decision aims to prevent Palestinian leaders from advancing unilateral statehood recognition, citing issues like support for terrorism and glorification of violence.
